Interview: The Long Night Audiobook Narrator – Tremaine Davies

An interview with Tremaine Davies, Narrator of The Long Night Blood Will Be Served. Going through the many auditions, something about Tre really just stood out. It was the way that he brought the character Alfred to life that truly fascinated me. He has been incredible throughout 8 months of production: Q1. What was it about The Long Night that made you think “I want to narrate that.” A1. It’s always nice to work on something you really enjoy. The thing about The Long night that appealed to me the most was the main character, Alfred. From the first time I saw the cover art of the book I wanted to know what drove and motivated him. Q2. How was …

The Long Night: Blood Will Be Served – Audiobook

The Long Night: Blood Will Be Served – Audiobook “The Long Night: Blood Will Be Served has it all like action, fighting, vampires, werewolves, blood and gore with twists and turns around every corner.” Nancy The Avid Reader They say only the strong collapse because the weak are always on the ground. Vampires were cursed from the moment they were brought into this world.  Everyone hid in the shadows as they accepted whatever fate the Elders deemed worthy for them. But then I became Fortier, proclaimed the strongest vampire amongst all undead.  I started by quelling a long standing feud between the two prominent vampire houses. No one thought it could be done, but I did it. Now my goal …

Switching From MailChimp To MailerLite

Why I Switched From MailChimp To MailerLite There are many mailing list providers out there, but MailChimp is among the best ones to start out with. Throughout this post, I’ll be discussing how I started to build my newsletter, and the thought process behind me switching to MailerLite from MailChimp. First of all, when it comes to starting out: MailChimp is superior to any other tool out there (provided you are at the beginning of building your newsletter and can’t monetize it or justify the expense yet). MailChimp provides all the needed tools to start out. It’s free until 2000 subscribers (with a limit of 12,000 emails per month – and as of writing this, 2000 emails per day). Getting …

BOOK REVIEW: The Delinquent Crown

This was definitely not my usual read. But I’ve been wanting to delve into the Sci-fi genre for a while now, and when the opportunity came to get an ARC for this, I jumped on it -and boy was I glad I did. This story, although not as “dark” as my usual reads -don’t judge me- definitely offered a great world, with a solid plot and enough intrigue to keep me reading throughout.

6 Reasons Why You Should Read Indie Books

A few days ago, I was having a discussion with one of my friends (I’m proud to say, I have more than one) about indie authors vs traditional authors, and I came to the realization that I much prefer indie books over traditional ones. That to me was interesting as my friend told me “I tried to finish a book once, but couldn’t. That’s why I think reading isn’t for me.”

After The Long Night, What’s Next?

Well, I’m finally done with the work needed after launching The Long Night. The wheel will continue to roll, but right now for me… The Long Night joins the family while I continue to work on other projects and books. I figured an update was long overdue (I did disappear for quite some time). What have I been doing? A release consists of a lot of work -naturally. For me, it was organizing a blog tour, a book blitz and getting reviews up and running. Throughout the release of The Long Night, my email newsletter has been growing rapidly (it’s been a challenge to keep up the pace). I try to send about 2 to 3 newsletters every week (and …

Answering Reader Questions – Part 1

I’m so excited for this. If you didn’t know, I asked readers from my newsletter to send me any questions they wanted me to answer. So, I’ll be going through them in this post. There was no limitations, and they could ask me anything related to writing, or about the Roman Republic, there was only one rule: I couldn’t use Google to answer them. I still have a lot of news to announce but depending on my schedule, I will be doing this at least once every 3 months. P.S: If you’re interested to subscribe to my newsletter, click here for more information. Answering Reader Questions – Part 1:   Questions by Shandra:   Q: I desperately want to write …
